Featuring Boulder Flower Farm, Greystone Castle, The Home Ranch, and Flying Diamond Ranch
Tented weddings in Colorado offer the perfect fusion of natural grandeur and bespoke elegance. Whether on a flower-draped farm, atop a historic castle, or nestled in mountain wilderness, each venue provides a striking canvas for celebration.
What we love most about tented weddings is the ability to truly customize every detail. From the layout and lighting to the draping, furniture, flooring, and florals, tents offer an unparalleled level of creative freedom. Unlike traditional venues with fixed aesthetics, tents allow you to design a celebration that feels entirely your own—intimate or grand, rustic or refined, minimalist or richly layered.
